Namaste all.
My translation to a pada of Sri Narahari dasa Thakur
from 'Gambhiraa me Sri Vishnupriya' - pg. 192
This song describes of a sweet dream in which conjugal
Madhurya Rasa is enjoyed by the Gopi-Sakhi (Madhumati):
My Divine Beloved appeared on my bed and seated Himself
very, very close to me.... It is impossible for me to count my blessings!
I could only look at Him with a heavy side-long
glance overpowered by my silly shyness.
The Embodiment of amorous Love, Gaura Candra,
the Golden Moon, knowing this maid servant fully well
to be His own possession, His eternally surrendered soul,
plunged me in His boundless joy of Divine Love,
He sweetly whispered again and again into my ears -
"Dearest sweetheart, I love you more than my very own life!"
and took me into His firm embrace drowning my consciousness in ecstatic bliss.
But still I was mercilessly restrained by my natural feminine shyness.
Lord Gaura skillfully transfered into my mouth the intoxicating
nectar of His chewed paan- (spiced betel leaves) and
started drinking the beauty of my face, tenderly caressing my lips
with His soft lotus hands!
Who could even imagine the expertise of His passionate love making!
In the concluding verse, Sri Narahari declares-
My soul Beloved has deeply imprinted His ever lasting image upon
my tender melted heart - as the One and Only desirable, seductive
Supreme male, Who ever enchants the blessed youthful maidens.
The same author also wrote these exquisite Sanskrit verse:
gopInAM kuca-kuGkumena nicitaM vAsaH kim asyAruNam
nindan-kAJcana-kAnti-rasa-rasika-zleSeNa gauraM vapuH
tAsAM gADha-karAbhibandhana-rasollAsodgamaM dRzyate
AzcaryyaM sakhi pazya lampaTa-guroH sannyAsI-vezaM sthito
How amazing, Sakhi!
Look, just at this Master of the debauchees,
flouting a Sanyasi's garb!
While secretly fleeing His country Gokula, His pitambara attire turned saffron
by the kunkuma smears left from the Gopis' breasts and His "rAdhAnurAga"
turned His eyes red!
But after enjoying the 'rAsa', He stole the Gopis' golden 'kAnti' to become Gaura!
So I'll bet that the intoxicating touch left by Their sweet embraces is making Him horripilate!
